Would an all GK's list work WELL?

[maniac9230]

Hey guys. i'm kind of new to daemonhunters and i was looking into and all GK's list and i was wondering if it would hold up in a tournament? Are GK's alone, tough enough to handle any single army? thanks for the input guys, hope to hear some good reasponses.

witchhunters?


GK: They should be able to handle bout everything that get's thrown at them, though the main proboblem they have it to take out higher AV tanks, other then that, they should be able to take A LOT.

Absolutley! The standard Grey Knight trooper is one of the most effective anti-troop tools in 40K IMO. His massed Stormbolters will lay waste to enemy troops in the open, and his great CC abilities and high strength kill troop and light armor.

The thing that this troop needs is fire support, so if you are taking them and want to keep a "Pure" Grey Knight force, you will need some Dreadnaughts, especially the TLLC/ML variety. A list with 2 - 3 of these, and plenty PAGK in troops and Fast Attack is a devastating force.

I took such a list this past weekend to a Hall of Heroes Tourney, and came 5th out of 18, and I did have a tough draw.

Cheers!

what are the requirements that i must meet in order to bring along a GK dreadnoughts? i know they would be a heavy choice in a GK army.

A GK hero is all you need to field GK dreadnoughts and such but be warned with a pure FK army there's a lot armies that will take you down quikc horde armies or shooting armies will be your main problems.

Horde armies have been no problem for me at all. 'Nids, Orks get mowed down by Storm Bolters. You need the Dreads to wound the Monstrous Creatures and take out transports. Psycannons are good for this as well.

The only army that I dread facing is a tank heavy IG or Mech Tau Army. Once they have taken out my Dreads there isn't much you can do to take out thier heavy tanks.

I'm sorry, stupid question but what does FK stand for? i'm still learning the abbreviations for this army.

Any heavily mechanized army can be a problem. My bane is my friend's mech space marine army, heavy on tanks and heavy on ordnance. Very difficult to beat.

The solution most people suggest: induct imperial guard. Which sucks if you really wanna play pure Inquisition, as I do. Just don't like the guard that much....
